How can I purchase a Korean SC2?

I am currently living in the USA, but I would like to buy the Korean version of SC2 to play on the Korean server. I've done quite a bit of googling on the topic, but I seem stuck so long as I do not have an i-Pin or a Korean SSN.

http://kr.battle.net/sc2/ko/ This is the Korean sc2 site I think. If you were to make a bnet account here and then buy the game digitally I would imagine it would be the Korean version. Might have to do some translating my friend. I have done all I can do the rest you must do alone, great hero. Good luck on your quest!

Hmm...it was my understanding that so long as you did the digital download and set your Language/region to whatever country, you would be on that country's server. Blizzard even gives you a popup notifying you of this when you download the game

problem is, you need to attach a korean copy of a game to a KOREAN account.

and you can only create a korean account with a korean social security number.

As far as I understand it, the server you play on depends on what region your bnet account is created in, NOT your CD key, or if you bought digitally or any of that other stuff. If you manage to make a bnet account on the Korean site, any SC2 purchased from anywhere would connect you to the korean server, so long as it's registered to that account.

Anyone confirm this?

The hard part is making a Korean account- I can confirm that you definitely need a Korean Social Security number and only Korean citizens have these. I used my girlfriend's.

My SC2 game says that it is only playable on europe servers. So, wouldn't it be enough to get a copy that says the same with korean servers? So you're automatically conected with those?I'm not sure, if that's possible. Maybe I'm totally wrong but those were my thoughts.
